About this position
EcoDisco is an ANR project on biodiversity conservation choices over time and under uncertainty. The postdoctoral researcher will work on the interface of ecological economics, network analysis, and modelling to study how limited resources can be allocated between species protection and the acquisition of knowledge about ecosystems.
The project connects functional diversity, describing the variety of ecological roles and traits of species, with phylogenetic diversity, which reflects their evolutionary history. It uses discounting to examine the trade-offs between present and future benefits of conservation, with links to the economics of climate change.
Research tasks focus on species interaction networks and the consequences of incomplete observation. The successful candidate will develop dynamic models and simulations to assess when it is preferable to invest in conservation versus information gathering, and how priorities should change as knowledge improves.
The position is based at the Institut Jean Nicod in Paris, with the work carried out under the scientific responsibility of Sacha Bourgeois-Gironde and in collaboration with José Montoya and the ecology partners of the project. The post is hosted in a multidisciplinary environment combining modelling, ecology, and decision analysis.
